Amazon is trying to get the right of '.amazon' domain. However, Peru and Brazil demands that such domain should be free as it the name of the famous jungle. 
Amazon is appealing to these countries by... well.. given their kids Kindles, electronic books and web services which they say are worth 5 million USD (Source in Spanish: Elcomercio.pe)

Both demanding parties are looking for other countries with Amazon territory to join their efforts, so the court case is being delayed.

The right people in Colombia could buy Bezos. They have a nice agriculture industry there.

thought amazon would be smarter than to pull a stunt like this.

wonder what the native non-colonists called it

 

playing my little violin here thinking about all the European immigrants trying to squeeze money out of amazon.com for using an ancient greek term those immigrants slapped on top of the land they stole

Problem solved.

But then they'd have to get google or whoever to change search algorithms to not list things in alphabetical order.

 

Or else .amzn might come after anything else beginning with .am
